Make the Most of Your San Pedro de Atacama Stay

Where the desert meets the sky

San Pedro de Atacama sits at 2,400 meters in the world's driest desert, where adobe architecture frames views of snow-capped volcanoes and the Andes. This compact oasis town centers on Caracoles, a pedestrian street lined with earthen buildings housing refined restaurants that transform indigenous ingredients like quinoa and rica-rica into sophisticated cuisine. The colonial Church of San Pedro anchors the plaza, its cactus-wood beams standing since 1744.

Gateway to geological wonders

The surrounding landscape offers experiences unlike anywhere else. Valle de la Luna's salt formations glow amber at sunset, while El Tatio's geysers erupt at dawn from 4,320 meters. Float effortlessly in Laguna Cejar's mineral-rich waters, then watch flamingos wade through the vast Salar de Atacama. High-altitude Miscanti and Miñiques lagoons reflect volcanic peaks in cobalt waters, and Puritama's thermal pools provide warmth in a desert canyon.

Planning your visit

Most travelers arrive through Calama's El Loa Airport, 90 minutes away. The town is entirely walkable, though reaching attractions requires organized tours or 4x4 rental. Luxury lodges outside town offer stargazing programs leveraging the region's clear skies. Members can use miles to book premium accommodations with heated vehicles for pre-dawn excursions and expert guides who navigate altitude and terrain with care.
